No, it was the suggestion that the removal of sexual violence from a private business’s video game platform is akin to censorship.

As if sexually violent games are all Steam is removing.
-
what else are they removing? i’m genuinely curious.

For one, this frankly adorable wlw visual novel:http://blog.mangagamer.org/2018/05/18/regarding-recent-inquires-into-steam-content-policy-notices/ …

i see. been a perennial problem deciding what is 'mature' vs what is pornography I guess. well good luck to yall.
-
hard problem, sure. either way, you agree it is censorship, yeah? (and even for cases where it's meant to be porn, does "match tiles to advance through 'dates' to see pictures of anime girls we drew" really amount to "sexual violence"?)
-
someone else said it was cause of regulation and i can't find any articles on it. So if it's a private company's decision then it's really not censorship, it's a company's decision in response to changing norms. and sure there is porn that isn't violent.

if this title is fine then that's an implementation problem. the way the change in policy seems to be written seems like a good development though. Obviously there will be cases on the margin.
